Bonnie Rotten interview

Well, for Bonnie, being rotten is a marvelous thing. Of course, in the porn industry, the term rotten conjures up many things. One of them is having intense sex in every hole in your body and loving it. Furthermore, her many tattoes also enhance her image of an alternative performer. That's why much credit has to go to AVN for selecting Bonnie as one of their trophy girls for the upcoming awards show. They realize that one needs to look past those artistic markings to see her true professionalism. Her award nominated film Meet Bonnie is the perfect showcase for this refreshing newcomer in so much that a lot of thought went into it by her and director Eddie Powell. She has an image to maintain even at this early stage of her promising career. It is going to be fun watching this AVN Best New Starlet of the Year nominee's progression in this industry.

Hi Bonnie, I want to congratulate you on being named a 2013 AVN Trophy Girl. What does this recognition mean to you?

Gosh, thank you so much. I am so stoked about this. Being named Trophy Girl for AVN shows me that people in the industry are expanding their minds. It means so much to me to be recognized for my full potential. I got the most beautiful dress for AVN from Roberto Cavalli, lengthy, black, classy! I can't wait to show it to everyone.

Also, I must add what a great honor it is for Meet Bonnie to be nominated for Best All-Sex Release and my DP for Best Gonzo Scene for the XBIZ Awards. I took great pride in them and can't be more ecstatic!

Have you ever been to the AVN Expo? What are some of the things that you are most looking forward to doing at the convention?

I went for the first time last year. It was a crazy trip! It was actually before I was in the industry, but it was a great introduction I must say. I am definitely looking forward to being trophy girl and being a spectacle for viewers. Also, I’m signing at the AEE show. I think that will be super fun. I'm going to be all over the place. But, I’ll be posted in the Sex and Metal booth playing with bondage equipment. I can't wait to meet my fans! I love seeing them smile.

One look at you and people do not immediately think of you as a porn star. I love that about you since you are so unconventional. For those people who are not aware of you, how long have you been in the industry, what have been your most pleasurable moments so far? What has been your least pleasurable ones?

I've been in it since March so about seven months. I would say the most pleasurable moment was completing Meet Bonnie for New Sensations. That was a great project, and a great honor for Scott to dedicate a whole film to me, especially being a newcomer and a heavily-tattooed one at that! It was so special to me because Eddie Powell and I handpicked the scenes and we collaborated on what would be electrifying to viewers and who I would have the most chemistry with. I did a b/g scene with Bruce Venture. That was a hot one. He had me going. In an anal scene with Mick Blue, we used a lot of toys and a diamond butt plug (one of my favorite accessories!) and an epic ass pounding. The g/g/g scene with me, Skin Diamond, and Asphyxia Noir was so hot with strap-on madness, whipping, and pussy eating. It's definitely one to check out. And my DP was with Mick Blue and Ramon Nomar. If I could be DPed everyday, I would probably take that ticket. It was my first! I have a newfound love.

My worst experience I would have to say is when a girl bled on an anal scene. I felt so terrible for her. We were on set for like nine hours. It was a horribly long day. It’s still incomplete and I didn't get to cum!

How did you get into the adult industry?

Support Our Sponsor:

I came out to LA to shoot for Girls & Corpses magazine. At the time, I was a stripper, car/motorcycle show spokesmodel, and promo girl. I was introduced to the fetish world and BDSM at a party I attended while in town. I saw people being spanked, walked on leashes, a girl bound by Saran Wrap made to squirt everywhere by a fucking machine! I was introduced to Ken Marcus (my mentor ever since) there, then shot for Ken a few times and knew that I was interested in BDSM long-term. I was in love! Then, not too long after, I started my journey as a submissive doing heavier BDSM, which lead to being around and exploring different things. I eventually moved into hardcore porn. One of my first stops was New Sensations when I had about 5 scenes (mainstream porn) under my belt. Scott wanted to take me on for Meet Bonnie, so there was my first big opportunity.

I love your energy level during your sex scenes especially when you suck cock? What traits of a man do you admire most? What makes a man sexy?

Thank you! I’m a cock worshiper, what can I say?

I'm big on being clean, not a fan of bad breath, I like spit and kissing so if your breath is bad, it ruins that for me. Being tidy, and together. I love a man’s nice teeth and smile which goes hand in hand with the breath thing and muscular legs, YUM. Seeing pulsing muscular legs as you throw me around makes me hot!

If I get in a guy's car and there is crap everywhere (food bags) or go to their house and they are disorganized, that shows me not only you’re nasty, but you can't prioritize and that you need a maid or your mama!

Have any of your fans recognized you in public? How do the fans mean to you?

They have! My fans are super important! Without my fans, I wouldn't be who I am. They want to see Bonnie! They want to see me get Rotten! The best time ever was this one time my friends and I were meeting for food and they brought another friend. I introduced myself and he had a smile on his face. He’s from Fiji, mind you! He goes "I heard you were getting new boobs. They look very nice." My friend never mentioned that or who I was. Oh, the Internet.

What was the biggest surprise for you when you entered the industry?

My biggest surprise was how people in the industry aren't running around and screwing in their spare time. It's actually a business! My perception was that things were just a big party. They aren't at all. You actually have to plan and strategize for the right opportunities and treat it like a career or fall by the wayside.

Since you are becoming well known for your tattoos, when did you become fascinated with this art form?

At the age of 13, I tattooed some stuff on myself, which lead to me covering it professionally with my first at the age of 15. The first was the large zombie on my stomach, that’s from the comic series, Night of the Living Dead: The Beginning issue #1! I'm a huge horror fan and most of my tattoos are old slasher films. I have the Leatherface III box cover on my left arm, "the saw is family," "camp blud" in reference to Friday the 13th on my lower knuckles, and “1428” the address of the house in Nightmare on Elm Street. I haven't been tattooed since I left Ohio. I have a few unfinished pieces I need worked on. I will have to make a trip to Ohio soon.

Are there any industry people (actors, actresses, directors, etc.) who you have not had the opportunity to work with yet and want to very badly and why? What would be your dream scene?

Asa Akira and Manuel Ferrara with me in the middle in a DP! Asa is wearing a strap on. How hot would that be?

How were you as a kid growing up?

I was a little tomboy and a straight-A student in school. I was a cheerleader, in student council, choir, and all of that. I grew up with three boys that lived down the street. They were like a second family to me. We used to hunt for the Blair Witch in the woods. We used to play with the chainsaws without the teeth and I always had a huge aversion to them when I was little, I remember a kid chasing me down the street with one and me jumping five feet into a tree and screaming for my grandpa. I got in trouble. I was always in mischief. I was always one of the boys. That got turned into sexuality at 13. Then I was more interested in other things than hunting for the Blair Witch.

What are your hobbies and interests?

Pole dancing. I take pole classes and have an award winning pole choreographer. I love pole dancing. It’s such a great way to workout, but also requires skill. I have one in my living room. I just started back on the pole after almost three months of healing from my boob job.

I love horror movies, obviously you probably can tell. But it goes deeper. I’m a nerd. I used to model at horror conventions and work booths for companies. I collect autographs, action figures, dolls, posters, movies, and t-shirts. I have bins full of toys, all in boxes! My favorites are ’70s, ’80s slasher flicks, and Lucio Fulci is definitely my favorite ’70s director! I also write scripts. I have lots of ideas and dreams that I like to try to create beautiful, sexy messes out of. I'll be using them for production in the near future. That’s definitely something to look forward to. I'm also an avid football fan! Most of you know my love for the Oakland Raiders runs pretty deep! It's been a tough season, though, that's for sure.

Many adult stars are pet lovers. Are you a dog or cat person?

I don't have either! How about a hybrid? That would be the best of both worlds. I had so many different animals growing up: a beautiful Siamese cat for 8 years, iguanas, snakes, turtles, piranha, ferrets, and nine dogs of all kinds at the same time. One was a 3 legged min pin we named Hefner! I love animals! I don’t have any currently. I don't really want any right now. Maybe a fish.

What is your shoe size?

7.5 or 8. I have super cute slender feet. I like them, and I am very ticklish! I love guys that suck on my toes. That’s hot especially when my soles are being licked.

Are there any websites or future projects that you would like to promote? What are you currently working on film wise?

I am working on a Bonnie and Clyde-inspired series for Brazzers. It was awesome. Me and Xander Corvus shot the first part a couple weeks ago. We got to go off-roading in the jeep, beat up a guy, shoot guns, and bang in the desert. It’s definitely going to be awesome! I also shot for a Penthouse movie last week, with Erica McLean directing. I was this bad ass owner of a tattoo shop and the guy had to prove to me he could handle it. I’m mostly focusing on screenwriting for 2013 production and getting ready for awards season. I have some really epic stuff in the works, so stayed tuned and Be Rotten!
